Volume of Tank given MLSS Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Volume of Tank = (Total Microbial Mass*Sewage Flow*Influent BOD)/(MLSS*Daily BOD)
V = (M_t*Q*Q_i)/(X*BOD)
This formula uses 6 Variables

Variables Used

Volume of Tank - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Volume of Tank is defined as the capacity of flocculation and mixing tank.
Total Microbial Mass - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Microbial Mass is the cumulative mass of microorganisms present in a given sample or system. This includes bacteria, fungi, protozoa, and other microbes.
Sewage Flow - (Measured in Cubic Meter) - Sewage Flow into the aeration tank is the sewage flow into the aeration tank when we have prior information of other parameters used.
Influent BOD - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - Influent BOD is the total amount of BOD which is present in the incoming sewage.
MLSS - (Measured in Kilogram per Cubic Meter) - MLSS is the concentration of suspended solids in the mixed liquor within an aeration tank during the activated sludge process.
Daily BOD - (Measured in Kilogram) - Daily BOD load measures the amount of oxygen that microorganisms will consume while decomposing organic matter in a water sample over a 24-hour period.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Microbial Mass: 3 Gram --> 0.003 Kilogram (Check conversion here)
Sewage Flow: 3.33 Cubic Meter --> 3.33 Cubic Meter No Conversion Required
Influent BOD: 0.0009 Milligram per Liter --> 9E-07 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
MLSS: 2 Milligram per Liter --> 0.002 Kilogram per Cubic Meter (Check conversion here)
Daily BOD: 3 Milligram --> 3E-06 Kilogram (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

V = (M_t*Q*Q_i)/(X*BOD) --> (0.003*3.33*9E-07)/(0.002*3E-06)

Evaluating ... ...

V = 1.4985

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.4985 Cubic Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.4985 Cubic Meter <-- Volume of Tank
